Shit HEB Makes (when its open).
My HEB at William Cannon and Brodie is reorganizing their shelves AGAIN and I want to burn the whole fucking thing to the ground. Just when you finally memorize where all your shit is located they fucking move everything around and it takes twice as long to do your shopping. Rage-inducing. They used to. And they were awesome. But they haven't made them in like 5 years.

A current draft of the Project Connect transportation plan has a light rail line running directly through Dirty's. People be pissed.

This Guy Got Knocked The Fuckkkkk Out
Is it against the rules? No. But the guy that got KO'd seemed a little confused because it looks like the KO'er was seeking a glove touch to "start" the match. It's shitty sportsmanship. And people tend to love it when it backfires.

I mean, they sell it for $20 a 4-pack at HEB. That's a 3x markup at $15 a can. You pay $10 for a six pack of Live Oak pilz at HEB and they charge $8 a can here, which is a 5x markup. The problem here isn't the markup. The problem is that Jellyfish is by far and away the most overpriced, overhyped and overrated beer in all of the land.

Fishing Megathread: Looking For Big Girls Who swallow
We got a small runoff pond here in south Austin that is fed by a spring so it holds water year round. Someone put bass and bluegill in it. They don’t get very large but it’s still fun to fish. Dug some nightcrawlers up today and the boy fished with those. He caught a dozen or so and I caught 10 using a little crank and a rooster tail. Good times. Yes. I am wearing a ghostbusters t shirt

Asteroid City--Wes Anderson director, release June 16 & June 23rd
I've enjoyed all of them in one way or another except French Dispatch. Tried to watch it three times and fell asleep each time. Gave up.

Popeye's chicken sandwich
I got a Church's around the corner from my house at William Cannon and Manchaca. They're doing a whole re-brand trying to church-up their image. Their drive through is still slow as fuuuuuuuck. But I'll fuck up some Church's every now and then.

Favorite Hot Sauce
I heard Sydney is Eric Nahlin.

Hey Steel Shank!
There's a simple explanation - the only time I've ever ordered JITB tacos I've been absolutely shithouse wasted. And when absolutely shithouse wasted, putting "sauce" packets on the outside of your taco makes perfect sense.

Favorite Hot Sauce
It's not that much work to me, and I don't mind it. Cut up peppers. Throw in salt water. Burp when you go into the pantry a few times a day. Drain, blend, and strain. Takes about 10 minutes to get it into the solution, and about 10 minutes to drain, blend and strain. Then I've got enough hot sauce for like 3 months and enough to give away to friends.

But then she'd have to live in Mansfield.- PIxar's next movie: Elemental
They've had some clunkers over the last 5 years or so, but I think Soul is a fantastic film. But it probably didn't kill it in the box office because it's not for younger kids. Elemental looks ok. I'll probably take my kids to see it. Looking forward to Inside Out 2, but that's pretty far off. Strange World was not a Pixar film. That was a straight up Walt Disney Animation film.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls

Dickies is to bbq as tabasco is to hot sauce.- Favorite Hot Sauce
FYI, tried to make a green version with serranos, japs, fermented tomatillos, garlic and cilantro and it was way too spicy and I didn't really care for the flavor. I'm sticking with ripened red peppers from now on.- Matt's El Rancho
Get the Asadero tacos. By far and away the best thing on the menu.- Texas BBQ
Moreno is a few miles away from me and they're putting out some killer bbq and burgers. I hope more people go support them so they stay open, but not so many people that they start having super long lines.- Favorite Hot Sauce
I make my own table sauce now and I use it on almost everything. HEB occasionally has red jalapenos in stock. I'll by about 25 of them, clean them, halve them and throw them in a 2 quart jar with 2-6 habaneros (depending on how hot I want the sauce) and lacto-ferment (3% salt-water solution) them in my pantry for a week. I burp the jar 2-4 times a day (more frequent in days 2-4 than 5-7). Then when they no longer are releasing gasses like crazy I reserve a cup of the brine. Drain the peppers, throw them in a blender with the reserved brine, a half cup of white or white wine vinegar, about 12 confit garlic cloves (or just regular old garlic), and whatever else you want to church it up with - carrots (in which case I would ferment those too), simple syrup, orange juice, etc. Once blended, you can either strain it through a mesh sieve to remove the solids, or you can leave it thicker for more of a thin salsa consistency. If you reserve the strained solids you can dehydrate them in the oven to make a kick-ass chili powder or chili crisp. Here are three versions I've made. The one on the left is half-strained combo of a super-hot version and a medium version. Medium is standard strained japs/habaneros. The one on the right is not as hot, where I used only cored and seeded japs and threw in some orange juice and a higher concentration of brine. Made that one because the other ones were a little too spicy for the wife and boy. Gonna grow a shit ton of peppers in a garden this year and make a bunch of versions of this stuff and see what I like best.- Bars
define "new". and what kind of bar do you like? name a few in your wheelhouse.- Texas BBQ
I lived in Chicago from 2001 to 2011. When I came home to visit, no one would have been able to talk me into not eating brisket and instead eating beef cheeks. That being said, those are some killer beef cheeks. And in a way, L&L not serving brisket acts as a line regulator. People want brisket so the lines are rarely 1 hour+ (at least when I've gone). Can you say that about any of the other joints that made the TM top 5 or 10?- Texas BBQ
Read this article last week. Actually ended up there because Texas Monthly's taco guy Jose Ralat included her "Espegetti Verde" as, perhaps, the very best thing he ate all year in 2022. She's got a cool story (as long as you're open-minded and lean toward inclusivity) and is apparently a badass bbq cook. Looking forward to checking this place out. - Texas BBQ
